Irish Mist Liqueur

Meet the oldest Irish Liqueur.

Heaven Hill is the largest independent, family-owned distillery company in the United States producing more the 50 brands of spirits and several variations therein. They were founded in 1935, at the height of the Great Depression (reason enough to need a shot of Whiskey) immediately after the repeal of Prohibition.They are based in Bardstown, Kentucky, so you might bet that Bourbon is a big part of what they do, and you would be right. Heaven Hill is currently the second-largest holder of aging Bourbon Whiskey stock in the world with an inventory of over 1 million barrels. Cheers! But these days they do a lot more than Bourbon and have a wide range of products including Gins, Vodkas, and a load of specialty beverages.

Irish Mist Liqueur is said to have been first crafted at the Tullamore Distillery in Ireland. It was based on a 1,000-year-old traditional Irish recipe that was lost for 250 years before it was found again in the 1940s in Ireland. Today, this Irish Whiskey-based Liqueur is infused with heather, clover, honey, and herbs at Heaven Hill distillery. Worry not, the recipe has remained the same with warm, honeyed sweetness that’s balanced by aromatic spices on the complex palate.
